Just out of curiosity. Can't we just link to a generic library version
if symbols are compatible!? Isn't this possible since symbols are resolved
at link time? I mean, isn't there some way to do it?
Correct me if I'm wrong, because I don't know the exact specification of
how that is done in linux/glibc. Though I did work with shared libraries
on amiga and solaris before and my feeling is that this is doable. :)
I only use libtool straightforward on debian and just know how to use shared
libs :)

Hmm. Yes, that's what I'd done. My comments were general, though. Just
reflections on where include dirs, libs, docs, tcl packages, etc. should be...
